Request for approval of a change in contract with WadeCon, LLC, in connection with final construction of Airline Drive from West Gulf Bank Road to West Road, adding 177 calendar days, with a deduction in the amount of $658,077.77, Job No. 21/0350-6, UPIN 19101MF0YA01, Precinct 2, MWBE Contracted Goal: 16%, MWBE Current Participation: 10.95%.

Road construction contracts sometimes need adjustments when conditions change in the field. In this case, the county is extending the finish date by 177 days while also cutting the contract amount. That combination usually signals that some planned work was removed or scaled back from the original scope.

This is a contract amendment — not a new project. The original contract covers final construction of Airline Drive in Precinct 2. The amendment being reviewed would: - Add 177 calendar days to the project schedule - Reduce the contract price by $658,077.

77 - Keep the contractor, WadeCon LLC, in place - Note that MWBE (minority- and women-owned business) participation is currently at 10.95%, below the 16% contracted goal
